Melody memory
Repeat a melody on four pads as the sequence grows by one note.
How to play
- Learn the four pad sounds before starting: circle is lowest, triangle is lower middle, square is upper middle, and diamond is highest.
- Listen to the three-note starting sequence. Pads do not highlight the notes during playback, so follow the sounds.
- Press the pads in the order you heard. Your completed sequence submits automatically. A correct sequence keeps the same notes and adds one at the end.
- Review the expected sequence and any missed note in the feedback. Your score records the longest sequence you completed correctly.
Try an example
Hear the example after learning the four sounds, then try to recall its order.
You hear the low sound, then upper middle, then lower middle. Which pads repeat the melody?

Show example answer
Press 1, 3, 2: circle, square, triangle.
Order matters. Pressing 1, 2, 3 uses the same three pads but changes the melody. A later round keeps 1, 3, 2 at the start and adds another note.
Scoring and modes
Daily uses one shared sequence for the UTC date, growing from three notes through ten rounds. A wrong pad ends the attempt; finishing all ten completes the daily. Practice is an endless memory run. Your score is the longest sequence completed correctly, not a sum of every note pressed.
One wrong pad ends a solo run. There is no answer timer, and Listen again lets you rehear the current sequence before committing. Try a fresh run to improve your personal best.
Head-to-head uses the same growing sequence for both players, for up to ten rounds. A missed sequence or timeout ends the match after review. The player with more correct sequences wins; tied performances use response time on correctly completed sequences. Ranked play has no pauses or replays and has its own Melody memory rating.
Practice
Practice saves your current attempt. Start a new practice puzzle when you want a fresh one. Practice results do not change Elo.
